Lexus Dream took the lead but when he galloped, Erik Adielsson and Giveitgasandgo were quickly in front. When Frode Hamre's star then hit the gas, the competitors had nothing to say. The clock stopped at 1.09,5 - the fastest winning time so far in the Four Year Old Elite.
- He looked brilliant<\/strong> and it was nice that he won after so many great performances,\" said Norwegian coach Frode Hamre, who hopes to return for even greater achievements in 2019.
- We hope we can come back next year and be part of Elitloppet in front of this fantastic audience. It's a dream for those of us who are involved in trotting.
The driver agreed and believes that the flying four-year-old can do great things in the future.
- \"I was impressed by him already in his debut. He is a horse that will be able to compete in the elite, he has a bright future,\" said Erik Adielsson, who himself had a bright Sunday to say the least.<\/p>\n
Svante B\u00e5th's three-year-old was just the best despite a tough trip to the outside.
- He stumbled just after the start and that made the performance even more impressive, said the coach and the driver could only agree.
- Tell the horse to have a medal of honor.<\/strong> Standing up when you are about to load is not something even many experienced horses do, said Erik Adielsson.
Alessandro Gocciadoro also had a successful Sunday. The Italian had already taken four victories before Sunday but completed the elite race weekend at Solvalla by taking two more.
In the Three-Year-Old Elite for mares, it was point and finish with Zabriskie O.K.<\/strong> and in the Four-year-old elite for mares Alessandro Gocciadoro piloted the winner Virginia Grif <\/strong>to victory.
- I have no words, I'm overjoyed, the driver and trainer summed up the fantastic weekend.<\/p>\n
In the Apprentice Elite, Marc Elias took<\/strong> an unexpected but emotional victory with Toddler <\/strong>that dad Conrad Lugauer coaches.
- It's the Elitlopp weekend, dad already won yesterday and now I got to win the Apprentice Elite with a horse that we didn't think could run over short distance last year. And now he wins in 1.10,7 - it's crazy,\" said Marc Elias and continued:
- I was aiming to win this but I didn't believe it. It was an even field and track six was not great but it worked out perfectly. When I took him out in lane three I felt there was a lot left in him.<\/p>\n
